Welcome, as This Week In Doctor Who gets closer and closer to being back on schedule. Once you get off schedule, it gets tricky to get back to schedule. Thanks to everyone for bearing with the recent publication problems and the ones that may occur one week this fall when I move.

Now, I did this in the months before Doctor Who returned in 2005, and it seems only appropriate to do it now. The official cast list for the 2010 Doctor Who series:

The Doctor: Matt SmithAmy Pond: Karen Gillan

UK - BBC Three is running an apparently new Doctor Who special on Thursday 20 August at 8PM BST. It is titled Doctor Who Greatest Moments: The Doctor. This is excellent news for Doctor Who And The Silurians, as this means that Doctor Who - Doctor Who And The Silurians is no longer the oddest looking Doctor Who title. Here's hoping the special is good fun for all who watch.

New Zealand - Prime TV has purchased the final David Tennant Doctor Who episodes - The Waters Of Mars and the 2 part finale. This is good news, except that I thought Prime had already bought The Waters Of Mars. Oh well.

Listings for North and South America are in This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere. Sarah Jane Adventures, K9 and Podcasts are in This Week In Doctor Who Spinoffs. Torchwood info is in Torchwood This Week.

USA - BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com has decided to bring fans a lot more Doctor Who. Just not on the linear station. BBC America On Demand (carried by better digital cable on demand lineups, not carried by DirecTV or Dish Network) will begin providing 4 to 6 episodes of Doctor Who (2005 onwards) per week, with episodes available for 3 to 4 weeks. It begins this Monday August 10 with Rose through Aliens Of London. While most of BBC America On Demand's shows are current firstrun BBC America programming, they often carry a show not currently on the regular lineup (Coupling had a video on demand only run for a while). Doctor Who did not air on the On Demand service during BBC America's previous runs of the episode, probably because SciFi Channel had the primary rights to the show at the time. Thanks to the readers who spotted a Doctor Who page that appeared on BBC America On Demand recently.

USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.

Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than that. But these are the stations who have contacted me or scheduled the show. Unlike previous years, we are in the dark till a station comes forward or new Who appears in their schedules.

Series 2 is currently available to public TV stations in an American Public TV package until March 31, 2010. For the Series 1 and 2 packages, stations have bought the rights to cycle through the episodes 4 times. They are not required to do so. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or not.

2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run (1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.

All the entries are available for the public to see. Now KTEH - where is Series 3?

UK - Series 3 will be on BBC One and CBBC this fall. No start date yet, but starting in late September like Series 1 and 2 would be the easiest way to do it.

USA - Since Syfy has not purchased Series 2 or 3 of Sarah Jane, we have no idea when or if the episodes will reach our TV screens. No network has mentioned that they are buying the show yet. Yes, BBC America has been sent e-mails and twitters asking if they'll step forward.

CANADA - BBC Kids has not mentioned any plans to pick up Sarah Jane Series 2. Instead they've been getting themselves dropped from some cable systems. No other network has mentioned if they want Sarah Jane in Canada.

K9 - Coming later 2009 (or early 2010, by some reports). Network Ten in Australia and Jetix/DisneyXD in the UK are expected to air it. Other broadcasters unknown. 26 episodes in this first batch. Starring John Leeson as the voice of K9.

An extended episode with a look at the companion chronicles story "The Mahogany Murders" and a serious look at the health dangers involved in watching "Dimensions In Time". Ok - maybe not all that serious.Coming soon - the 10th episode spectacular!

Bridging The Rift http://bridgingtherift.wordpress.comKatrina (Radio Free Skaro) and Nat launch a new show bringing the worlds of Doctor Who fandom, Torchwood fandom, Sarah Jane Adventures fandom, K9 fandom, and other areas together. Each week - a special guest co-host.1. Torchwood: What Happens Next? After the end of Torchwood: Children Of Earth, does the show have a future? Should it have a future? Katrina, Nat, and guest host Liz from "A Teaspoon And An Open Mind" ponder this and have some rather good ideas for a 4th Series, if anybody in the production office feels like listening to this episode and finding inspiration. Also, some Trock music.2. 11th Doctor 1st Filming Photos. Katrina, Nat, and guest host Eric (from the Radio Free Skaro panel show believed to have spawned this podcast) contemplate what we know about the new Doctor and what we want to believe. Also, some Trock music.

The Minute Doctor Who Podcast http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.htmlVideo (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes are usually under 5 minutes long.Current episodes (all 3 of these are video):18 - What Do You Think I Believe RTD? - a podcast about faith and Doctor Who.19 - More About Faith In Doctor Who - I think I know the content, but having trouble playing this one at the moment.20 - Cricket - Luke gives a rather detailed breakdown of how Doctor Who explains the rules of cricket. The game almost made sense to me after watching this one, and that game has NEVER made sense to me. And as I said on Twitter, I'm guessing the Doctor learned about cricket in his 3rd incarnation while exiled on Earth - the planet was getting invaded 4 or 5 times a year, and those stories were taking a week or less each in real time. The Doctor needed other things to fill up the rest of each year.

The Tennantcast http://tennantcast.comKelsey, Kari, Flossie, and friends get together to dish on the latest David Tennant news.11 - More Is Less. Kelsey is absent, searching for a place called Scotland. In this shorter than normal episode, Kari, Flossie, and George hold down the fort.Coming Very Soon - 12. Chris Burgess of Radio Free Skaro alerted me that this episode would be up by Saturday morning. Just like this column, it missed the deadline. Or at least Tennantcast missed the deadline if you had iTunes. Rumors of a special guest. No, not me.

The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.Current episode - 9. Convention coverage from March 2009, when Samantha met Peter Davison and Mark Strickson.

Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.netMike and Dan decide to do their own podcast exploring each Doctor Who story in broadcast order. It is a very different style from Jonathan's. Again - can they pull it off? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language (swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.Current episode - 18 - Power Of The Daleks. A new Doctor arrives. Mike approves.Coming soon - 19 - The Highlanders and The Underwater Menace.

Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.comFan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest co-host.Current episodes:#11. An Unearthly Child. The first story gets featured as David launches a new RSS feed.#12. Battlefield. David comes into this story planning to like Battlefield a great deal. I won't say he comes away hating it, but his reaction is rather mixed. I think Battlefield is the best story of that season and would say so on the air too, but I do understand what concerned him.

The Cloister Room http://thecloisterroom.comTom Dickinson begins a solo Doctor Who podcast effort with short shows on short subject that get to the point, bulldoze through the point, back up to ground the point down some more, then flee the scene before the police arrive.Current episode - 2. "Oh Captain, My Captain!" Tom looks at the life of Captain Jack Harkness, trying to reconcile his Doctor Who and Torchwood adventures into a unified storyline.

Tim's Take On ...Tim Drury's podcast on various issues. Still checking it out at press time. Available on iTunes.

The Big Finish Podcast http://www.bigfinish.com/podcastBig Finish podcasts at least once a month to discuss their Doctor Who and other projects (Sapphire and Steel, Stargate (!), Dark Shadows, Bernice Summerfield, etc).Current episode - Charley Pollard special. Three new audios starring the 6th Doctor (Colin Baker) and Charley (Isla Fisher) are coming soon. This has inspired the Big Finish team to throw a party and have Ms. Fisher in as a guest. Really can't explain why without spoiling it all - you'll have to tune in. And if you're Red Green, expect to learn a new use for Duct Tape in case you ever bring your show back to TV.

Tachyon TV http://www.tachyon-tv.co.ukIrregular and irreverant podcast looking at the world of Doctor Who with a funhouse mirror and coming out the other side holding a plush toy that wasn't really the one you wanted but you'll keep it anyway because you can give it to your girlfriend to impress her. It's that kind of show.Current segment - a short appeal by "Rula Lenska".

MMM Commentaries/Fantragic http://www.mmmcommentaries.comRoving Australian podcasting gang, including Trevor from the DWO Whocast. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others. The Frantragic episodes look at Doctor Who and other sci-fi news. Fantragic episodes are on a different iTunes feed from MMM Commentary episodes.Current Doctor Who episode - Journey's End. If the description in the iTunes tag is anything to go by, this running commentary on the Doctor Who Series 4 finale will not have a happy ending..

If SyfyHD airs any of the newer Doctor Who (we don't know if BBC America's new contract allows other networks to buy in later, and we don't know if Syfy is willing to buy Doctor Who for second run), then it won't be cropped. It will be letterbox on the standard definition channel. The Next Doctor would have the silly box on all sides on the HD channel. Planet Of The Dead onwards would be in proper HD filling the screen on the HD channel.
